We got lucky!
« on: December 05, 2013, 08:38:11 PM »
Ok, so I am on my way to school for wrestling practice, and we take a school bus from one campus to another. So, my friend Nick and I were getting on the first bus in line, and my friend Mark yelled at us to get on the second bus with him, and we did. We were at an intersection, turning left at the light, right behind the firsrt bus, when a minivan runs a red light, hitting a car  and sending it into the first bus. The minivans sliding door was knocked off and the car that hit the bus had its back windshield shattered. Thankfully, no one was hurt, but come on people, PAY ATTENTION!
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing.

damn, I got rear ended yesterday.   was leaving work waiting to make a right turn, saw a pick up truck loaded trying to beat the light, so I waited for him to pass.  as soon as the truck passed the guy behind me stepped in the gas and hit me.  his f-150 moved my sebring convertible about 4 feet.  made a couple of dents smal holes from his licence plate on my bumper was everything was cool.

the funny thing is that I looked at his insurance  and he has one of them "low cost" pos insurance that you can buy from a broker/hot dot vendor.  figure it's gonna cost him his bonus next week.

Gotta love irresponsible drivers, a couple years back I was stoped at a stop sign behind 2 cars.  1 car pulled out so we pulled forward, and bang, I look in my mirror and there was an f150 with a plow mount on.  I wasnt too concerned as it was just a tap and I was in a hurry to get to a farm, the other driver obviously wasnt worried as he wasnt getting out.  so I pull up to the stop sign and BANG, I was like WTF 2 TIMES!!! :mad: :mad:  So at this point I pulled off the road and got him to pull over.  I asked him what his problem was and he says, " I have a brake problem and cant stop"  I was like well you cant use the car in front of you as brakes.  If I had the tailgate on my truck he would have bought me a new one, as his plow motor would have been right in the middle of it, didnt even scratch the chrome on my bumper though.  I am sure he didnt even have insurance :mad:

you should have beat him with something while politely explaining that you have an anger problem.
